Classic example of a high def picture looking so much better than a scan.

There are a lot of Bibbys on comc.com. It's a good site! It will be one of the cheaper insert sets from the 90s I am trying to complete.

I freaking love it. One of my favorite pickups of the past year but if a good member can use it I'm willing to make a deal.

feel the same way about a lot of cards, if someone can get more enjoyment out of it, all the better

I found the one that I had never seen anywhere before and the same guy had the Barkley. Sold me both plus a few Stoudamire refractors for a pretty reasonable price. Should have those in hand early next week.

[AbraCalabro]

ohhh wow, that's awesome. I can't wait to see them! It's really cool watching the sets others are building from start to finish, even more so when they are all scanned in side by side like that! Really a great set and I'm looking forward to the Game Breakers set as well!

I'm looking forward to focusing on that one once I get this one completed (or at least get them all but the Jordan). I probably won't pick up the Jordan Rock Stars until late summer due to the impending wedding in June. That one card will likely set me back $100+. Luckily, the Jordan/Pippen Game Breakers is only about a $30 card in most cases.

Glad to hear the game breakers isn't too bad on the pricing. The MJ refractor...100, OUCH.

Here's what I got in earlier in the week and just got around to scanning:



Locked in a great deal recently so I will be updating with more additions soon. Under 20 cards remaining for me at this point.

[myusasets]

hey where did all the set builders go. i've started up 2001-02 fleer shoebox set working off a base set i bought years ago need almost all the rookies /2500 anybody that wants to clean out the rookie card box. pm me.

[Miasma]

I got 11 packages in the mail today. I think that's a record for me. The Barkley has a little strip of plastic on the side, which I'm not happy about.



Stack and Kittles Ultrabilities Superstar


These last two are really the only newer sets I'm after


Closing in on the rainbow, minus the black, I need a gold and red/red pulsar. I bought a blue wave on ebay, but the seller never shipped it or responded to any messages

[AbraCalabro]

Oh my. That Barkley and Stackhouse. Those Thrill Seekers are really something else.

Here are couple of additions to my Flair Showcase set, you guys might recognize them, couple no-names from the 90s:

[myusasets]

good looking cards abra can't be many more to go.
